Publishing bitbucket to digital ocean

I'm essentially trying to understand the concept of git using bitbucket; I've been practicing version control by modifying files between my local and bitbucket accounts which has proven helpful.

Now I'm trying to work out how you would push the files from a remote repo in bitbucket (or i guess GitHub or the like) to a cloud hosting solution such as digital ocean. Is that even recommended? I can't really google it because result come up as thinking I mean the bitbucket server, or want to host a site on bitbucket itself. I'm not sure if you would ask digital ocean to 'fetch' the files, or there is options within Bitbucket to push remotely and act intermediately.

You can use post-receive hook in .git\hooks. The content of post-receive should be:

#!/bin/sh
git --work-tree=/droplet/repo --git-dir=/bitbucket/repo checkout -f

Now after you push changes to bitbucket, it will redeploy to droplet.

More detail, you can refer here.

You need to add a new remote branch in your local repository.

This is how you will do it. git remote add (You will need a repository ready on the remote location)

Note that in the example above they add a remote repository called origin. You might want to change it to something else if you have cloned the repository from bitbucket.

After that whenever you do any operation regarding a remote repository you will have to mention which remote repository.

Ex for push 

git push origin master
git push <remote_repo> <remote_branch>

I hope it helps.
